Really insightful interview from Gary Wilson on the yips, helpful for every #snooker fan to understand just how impactful the yips can be, as well as how exasperating it is on a human level.

My article on 1970s feminists, spycops, and if feminist historians can use materials extracted by undercover police officers is out in History Workshop Journal doi.org/10.1093/hwj/...
Leicester made a small historical adjustment. English football appears to be applying the same standard in return.
The "protection" of women's sports is being used as a weapon to dismantle them. From UC Berkeley to Quinnipiac, championship programs are being "restructured" into silence under the guise of federal compliance.
Both can be standalone entities and also a collective of people depending on the sentence. You wouldn't say "London are delighted to host the Olympics" you'd say "London is delighted to host the Olympics". But the people of London are delighted.
The Dragons have announced a second signing ahead of the 2026/27 season, with back row Terrell Peita joining from the Blues.
He can play all across the back row and has a rather tidy try scoring record in New Zealand's NPC competition.

Plus he looks tidy and Tiatia respects him as a person and trusts him as a player. No arguing with that, best rationalisation for signing a player I heard.
He has connections with Tiatia and McLeod, it would be stupid for them to not use the contacts they've built over their careers. We have plenty of pathway kids in the squad as it is.

Welsh manager one day 110%. What a legacy she's leaving behind as a player, mind. Nobody else like her.
Great move by #NRL: new cap on contact in training aims to reduce injuries, including #concussion, based on research by @alanpearcephd.bsky.social
Limits include: max 100 mins (men)/85 (women) on 7-day turnarounds, 40–50 mins on 5–6 days and preseason caps of 200 mins (men)/115 mins (women).
Cardiff City and Wolves in Championship again? Run it back.
Second #snooker season on tour, two ranking event quarter-finals, retained his tour card, and pushed a former world champion very close in Crucible at 19 years of age. Stan Moody can be proper proud of that. It might not feel like it right now for him, but that’s a hell of a season.

#COVID & #longcovid is one of the biggest mass denials in modern history, not because it ended but because we collectively decided it did. People are still ill, more chronically than ever. Only change is we just stopped being direct about it & started calling it cuter, funnier, more relatable names.
We live in a world where England’s women just had a 2 second ruck speed and 12 tries with 12/12 conversions, but that’s not enough to convince everyone to drop the smaller ball shit.
Think that's down to how there's year round seasons and consistent travel and singular players rather than team dynamics and rotations for NFL.a
mRNA vaccines continue to show major promise.
In a small Phase 1 trial led by Dr. Balachandran, some patients with pancreatic cancer (one of the deadliest cancers) reached 6-year survival.
This is why sustained investment in science & research matters.

Stan Moody's mentality is out of this world, especially for someone so young. When he locks in, he's in. Reminds me of Ronnie in that way. Not to mention his positional play, I know we know how good he is but even so, he's unbelievably impressive. #snooker

Bute Energy Welsh Cup winners five times in a row and promotion all in one weekend? What a club Cardiff City is, man. What a fucking club.
MEGAN BOWEN CONVERTS!!! CARDIFF CITY WIN THE SHOOTOUT!!!
🦢: ✅✅❌✅✅
🔵: ✅✅✅✅✅
Cardiff City and Swansea City draw level at full time in Bute Energy Welsh Cup. Penalties next.
An incredible comeback takes us to a penalty shootout. Unbelievable character.
Arteta burned them out. Barely any rotation, heads gone when it matters. Not bad luck, just bad planning. Pep roulette works so he manages the season to make sure they perform where it matters. Fundamental difference right there between elite & shit coaches.

Ali and George from @NTT20Pod with their view on Cardiff City's promotion to The Championship. Great that we will continue to be part of NTT20 in the EFL next season.

If we gotta pick one goal to represent the Premier League this season, it's gotta be whatever the fuck happened there.
The Cardiff City fan who went viral and became manager.
Remember the fan who broke his glasses while celebrating a goal with Sol Bamba during a Premier League game a few years ago? Today, he’s managing the club in a women's cup final:
